Ngumoha 'wants to improve'published at 09:25v

Liverpool v West Ham (Sat, 15:00 GMT)

Liverpool boss Arne Slot says Rio Ngumoha has been hyped all of his career and he's "handling it well". 

He adds the 17-year-old is "down to earth and wants to improve".

"In an ideal world you don't need your goalkeeper because you defend so well. But the important thing for us is if we do, we have an outstanding one. He has been here seven years now and also we not only have one good keeper, we also have Giorgi Mamardashvili too, another who could be the number one.

"Before he was there, we had Caoimhin Kelleher but Allisson has always been the number one and that tells you how good he is if he can keep Mamardashvili and Kelleher behind him."
